22News sister station, ABC22/FOX44 in Vermont, states that Theodore Bland, 29, allegedly shot and killed Jahim Solomon of Pittsfield and Eric White of Chicopee, both 21, on October 12th, 2023.
Bland allegedly used social media to message his co-conspirators regarding procuring, pricing, and distributing controlled substances to drug customers. Bland was also alleged to have sent messages after the deaths of Solomon and White, conspiring about how to cover up the homicides.
